💡 Fun fact from our newsroom: Did you know in Iron County, you can turn 18, research your candidates, register, and cast your very first vote—all in the same day?
That’s exactly what one member of our team did this Election Day after learning about local candidates in our recent issues. Now that’s a birthday to remember!
It’s a nice reminder that staying informed and voting can be easier than you think.

🗳️ This week’s issue includes unofficial Spring Election results, along with continued coverage of the races that matter to our community.

We’re grateful to all the candidates who stepped forward to serve, and to everyone in Iron County who came out and made their voices heard.

Pick up this week’s issue to stay informed and connected to Iron County—On News Stands Today!

🎉p.s. Happy Birthday to Ashlyn from all of us at The Miner!
